The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

🧵 It’s the 100th day of Trump 2.0, so here are 100 times Trump and those close to him have attacked press freedom and transparency.
That doesn’t mean they’re only averaging one per day – we had to make cuts. There will probably be more attacks while we’re posting this.

Financial and business leaders have long believed in an imaginary version of Donald Trump, a version they can support—more strategic, less impulsive, someone who thinks like them.
With massive tariffs, they're finding out how wrong they were the hard way.

Tariffs Expose Wall Street's Misplaced Faith in Trump
Bankers and business leaders imagine a more reliable, less protectionist version of the president than the one that actually exists. Now they're finding out the hard way.

Trump won’t rule out seeking a third term in the White House, tells NBC News ‘there are methods’ for doing so
President Donald Trump said in a Sunday-morning phone call that he was “not joking” about a third term, adding that “it is far too early to think about it.”

Let me get this straight: in his NYT op-ed, which he had ready to go, Schumer is basically conceding that Trump would wreak havoc during a shutdown and it's up to Dems to stop him. No, it fucking isn't. Let him do it and let the GOP reap the whirlwind.
